NEW VIDEO!
Analyzing the provocative and boundary-pushing independent film, "Mass State Lottery." This has been on my radar for quite some time, and I was lucky to receive an early screener of the film from the director himself ("LowRes Wunderbred" here on YouTube).
"Mass State Lottery" is a black comedy, crime-drama, and drug-trip all in one; just as insightful as it is experimental. But more than anything, this is a film that truly understands the current crisis facing the hordes of internet-addicted, fatherless young men. And I've never seen a movie so well-attuned to the often-overlooked emotional despair of today's misguided youth.

Had a blast chatting with the amazing ‪@alpharomero88‬ last night. We dove into the various themes of George Romero's Living Dead trilogy, including addiction to information, letting go of the past, the role of women in his films, and so much more.
Check it out if you're interested--it's a great show!

Currently writing my next video. It's a more personal essay than usual, inspired by one of the most haunting films I've seen in recent memory.

Folks, please give my latest video a watch! If you are a fan of Mad Max, Riddick, or anti-heroes in general, it's a MUST WATCH.
I have another video on the way later this month. It's on a more Halloween-appropriate movie, and I believe you'll all enjoy it very much.
Thanks for your support!

My latest film analysis focuses on two wounded warriors--Mad Max and Riddick. Despite being on-the-surface tough and capable anti-heroes, what hidden traumas do these men possess? And how does their unconfronted history hold them back from their true potential?
